Wasn't going to say anything to begin with...
As everyone else has said, this is an opinions board. Not everyone has to like the names you come up with, and posting super frequently on the boards with the same names over and over again can be annoying at the best of times.
Quite frankly the manner in which you've handled this disagreement and responded to the people who have defended Wordsmith's posts really displays a lack of maturity. It's differing opinions that make the world go around, and I personally find a large majority of Wordsmith's names a little too fancy and extravagant for my liking, but I can appreciate their liking for those kinds of names. You want to like or use a creative name then be my guest, but don't go making rude comments or telling others that we're "coming at you" for excessive posting or disagreeing with your name choices.
We're allowed to express our opinions, just because we don't like a name doesn't mean we're "coming at you", and don't go being rude to the people here who are just being honest, it's really not on in my book.

lol..
Illuminata is a hell of a lot nicer than some of the names you've come up with!
As previously stated, this board is generally full of people who are interested in names with lots of history and meaning. Modern and creative names don't receive much love. There are plenty of other name boards more suited to your creative names.. but you will generally find that Illuminata is going to get more love than Jazelle or Dalereign etc.
Totally fine to say that you don't like the name, but saying what wordsmith is posting is 'crap' is immature

Illuminata might not be your type, but at least it’s an actual name, unlike your beloved Xaileigh and Kendallyn.

No. We're a board of people who have opinions about names. Does it surprise you that someone who thinks your favorite names are tacky and ugly likes names you think are ugly and tacky? If so, WHY? Percolate on that for a little while.

No one's "coming at you." Why do you perceive it that way? This is a name opinions board. We share opinions about names here. How do you expect to function harmoniously if you take people not liking your names as "people coming at you"??? Wordsmith reacted with some annoyance to you posting the same freaking names like 4 times a day, not about your taste in names. You are MORE THAN FREE to leave if you can't figure out how anything works here. I think your taste in names is interesting - not similar to mine, but interesting - and lends the board an interesting flavor. But posting here literally means soliciting people's different reactions, and you have really got to chill out.
"Come at you" please are you twelve years old? Good lord

Why don't you just say, in response to Sophonisba and Perpetua, "I think this name is dumb." That's all you have to do. But "Is this a joke?" "Crap like this", and "BS" are attempts to censor what names other people can post about. But I think my explaining this is a waste of time, actually, because you already know that. You just like to stir up drama.
BTW, I still don't believe you're pregnant.

Look at some responses to other people's messages. You'll see all kinds of starkly negative opinions. Do you see people getting huffy and defensive about it? No, because we know we're not "coming at" each other.
edit: Look at my response to Sebastian. Look at Martha's response to Theodosia. Pretty harsh, and NOTHING personal about the posters involved or implied. It's just part of being on the board.
Wordsmith's got quirky taste. He's literary, old-fashioned, obscure. It's FUN. You don't have to like his names to enjoy his contributions to the board, just like I don't really like your ugly tacky names but I think they're sort of fun. This is a community of people with all kinds of different taste, and we need all kinds of styles to balance it out. And the whole point is to share opinions on this relatively low-stakes subject. If you can't deal with that and get along with people with different opinions, then you should either be quiet and "lurk" and just read people's posts until you figure it out, or go to some other baby names board where everyone thinks Xaileigh is super cute.

You're perfectly entitled to highly negative opinions. It's making it personal, and conveying others' opinions as attacks, that's inappropriate.

Yeah, you're mad because Wordsmith recently expressed weariness with your repetitiveness. So the thing to do was at that time politely defend your repetitiveness, not rudely state that he has no right to post about whatever names he wants to.

I agree.
Who the hell even came up with the name Salem DaleReign in the first place?

You don't have to like our opinions, but there's a difference between giving a negative opinion and saying, "Is this a joke?", "Why do you post crap like this?", and calling a post "BS".

A lot of people on this board would disagree. It's an opinions board. Grow up!
